enter. We are doing research on SIV and FeLV by generating new construct clones of the viruses to determine molecular basis of the control and regulation of
the viruses. We're just starting in on sequencing, hence the need for this
computer service and programs. I'm excited at getting to know this system and
I do have one question: We received all the information and manuals; Intro to BIONET, compuserve and telenet reference cards, etc. and have purchased the INTELLIGENETICS SUITE Ver 5.1, BUT, As far as I know we didn't receive a list of all the phone numbers that was supposed to come along. All I want is the number to
access Compuserve....please!!
Sincerely,

Dear Bionet,
I am a faculty member at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine, Department of Microbiology and Immunology, and have been for 3.5 years. I am studying cell division in E. coli, especially interested in the membrane architecture responsible for creation and maintenance of the septum. In addition we have a project studying the method by which the phage hiX174 lyses E. coli, since it may interact with the cell division of cell elongation apparatus. And I'm having some trouble typingn this system
since I can't seeem to find a way to easily edit my typing errors.
Sincerely,
K{vin Young, Ph. D. (see my problem?)

CKENT.SWEITZER@BIONET-20.BIO.NET (Thomas Sweitzer) (01/10/89)
Dear BIONET Consultants,
Thank you for your messages. My name is Tom Sweitzer, and I am currently a fourth year graduate student in the laboratory of Dr. Claudia Kent in the Biochemistry Department at Purdue University in Indiana. The research in our laboratory is focussed on understanding the regulation of mammalian lipid metabolism. My work specifically entails sequencing the rate-limiting enzyme of the pathway for phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis. I hope to use the protein sequence data to clone a cDNA for the enzyme f
rom a rat liver library. For some references, see the Journal of Biological Chemistry, volume 260, pp 7919-7926 (1985).
Sincerely,
Tom Sweitzer
